[QUOTE="Neoncat, post: 1465151, member: 397089"] I've been diabetic for 17 years and started using the Libre last year. At first I thought it was amazing (and I still do!) and then after a couple of weeks I had the same reaction as you. I was frustrated to the point of screaming that I couldn't seem to get it under control and sick of thinking about it all the time. So I did exactly what [USER=142835]@himtoo[/USER] suggested and took a little break from it. Still testing and carb counting, but just a week off from the tyranny of the line. After that I felt much better, and when I went back to it better able to focus on what I needed to do. Pick just one thing to focus on and once you have that down move onto the next. For me it was working out how far in advance of eating to inject, then working on my carb ratio. Good Luck! And remember even a tiny improvement is still an improvement! [/QUOTE]
